We revisit the numerical evolution of Ellis-Bronnikov-Morris-Thorne wormholes, which are constructed with a massless real ghost scalar field. For our simulations, we have developed a new code based on the standard 3+1 foliation of spacetime. We confirm that, for the massless symmetric wormhole, a pulse of regular scalar field causes the wormhole throat to collapse and form an apparent horizon, while a pulse of ghost scalar field can cause the wormhole throat to expand. As a new result, we show that it is possible for a pulse of regular matter to travel through the wormhole and then to send a light signal back before the wormhole collapses. We also evolve pulses of matter traveling through massive asymmetric wormholes, which has not previously been simulated.

  1. Dynamical evolution and stability of quantum corrected Schwarzschild black holes in semiclassical gravity

    gr-qc 2025-06 conditional novelty 6.0 of 10

    The static quantum corrected Schwarzschild wormhole is dynamically unstable: it expands in vacuum and collapses into an evaporating black hole when a small amount of matter is present.
